Hey guys 🙂

First up, and as always my sincere thanks to each and every one of you who help make this project a reality. I dont need to bang on about how shitty this year has been.. we all know, I just hope what we have been doing here has been a good distraction from the reality that is Covid. You guys have helped me get thru it, and I hope the same can be said in reverse ! So to all the regulars & newbies alike.. thanks again for the support.

As you might have noticed, there`s quite a lot of content landing the last couple of months. And, in places, the site is far from tidy. TBH, there`s going to be a bit of a major tidy next year.. or, as soon as I can do it. Sort of doing it on the fly as it is , but that is not ideal. So bear with on that please.

Ok, stuff you need to know. I`m toying with the idea of shutting down new registrations next year. It may be temporary, it may be permanent, or it may not happen, or I may turn the site into invite only. And there may be a second site coming too. I wish I could explain further, but I cant. But I reckon there will also be changes on entrance criteria and/or limited amounts of new members. For a time. and so on.

It seems the site is rattling too many cages, and that was never the plan, so as mentioned elsewhere on the site, next year, more than likely some changes are a comin. They would be coming anyway, but these may be different and unexpected compared to what you guys are used to, so , hence, the heads up.

Temp plan A is to close registrations at the end of January. The reason Im telling you this is because if you are reading this, you made the cut. There will also be new rules coming regarding leaving the club and coming back into it, and hopefully, there will be a rewards system for people actively helping the site.. whether it being by donating content and or inviting their friends to join via personal invitations or something !

Which brings me swiftly to where you each come in on this with the help individually over the next 6 weeks.

What I would like you to do over the holiday season if possible, is quietly spread the word to your good mates about how cool and groovy the site is and suggest to them how great it would be for them to join up as a member ! I`m sure I can find the odd extra Xmas gift for the pair of you as a bonus ! If you know of anybody that may find the site useful, please let them know about it, and if they like what they see, drop me a mail with your buddys name/ID when they sign up, and I`ll take it from there. You may suggest more than one friend.

Going to try this M/O for a while, (6 weeks) and the results will show whether I can indeed lock the site down and make it more cosy, or it will show if I have to leave the door open.. which in reality, would be slightly ajar.

Thats about it on that one.. I`m sure you get the drift, so any help on some newbie mates joining up would be greatly appreciated.

Next big subject to cross is how we re-think the “buy group” files lists. Dont think I will be able to post any more lists of potential buys to the mid tier folk for a while. Even tho it was much fun, and I got some great data, I think its probably best if any buy lists are only seen in future by Top Tier eyes. In fact, I might scrap lists like that altogether, or just mail out to the TT guys.. not sure on this as yet, but either way.. 100% guaranteed, new stuff is coming. You might just have to trust me as to what tho.. at least in the short term.

Still going to make the first port of call for the new stuff the ProTools page but, because its a bit cleaner, the info may be put on the R.F.P A-Z also. Not sure. Tempted to repurpose the RFP A-Z to contain everything the ProTools page shouldn`t tbh. But we`ll see.

Luckily, I know you guys can read between the lines (and the pages) pretty well these days anyway, so rest assured, the goodies will keep coming throughout the New Year and beyond.

Sorry for such a long news letter.. there may be another one coming soon so Ill leave it here for now.

Cheers guys and all the best 🙂
